The compassion and heartfelt care was clear from the first phone call. They went above and beyond and I am so grateful for Dr Shana agreeing to come give our sweet boy a peaceful transition. Timing and location were big factors and she graciously accommodated. It was everything and more than I could hope for because she is so kind, loving and thorough and it showed through and through for the entire process. This is the kind of person you want for a hard time such as this, along with her truly wonderful staff. A million thanks!

From the moment she arrived, she was gentle, patient, and incredibly thoughtful--explaining everything clearly and giving us the time and space we needed. Mary was calm and comfortable, and the entire process was peaceful and free of suffering. If you're facing this impossible decision and want your pet to pass at home with dignity and love, I cannot recommend Dr. Shana enough. She made an unbearable day feel a little softer, and I'll never forget the care she showed both Mary and our family.

I…read morehired an in-home euthanasia for my previous dog but decided against calling him again because although he was fine, he was just that, fine. He was prompt and professional but felt too business. The entire process must've been only 20-30 minutes. Dr. Au was everything you would ever want for this terribly painful event. Communication with her office/Tommy was very smooth via text message. I was able to understand scheduling and payment with ease. He was very patient with my multiple questions. Dr. Au (she introduces herself as Jeanine) was just wonderful. She arrived right on time (you get a 20-30 minutes heads up). There's a calm and warmth about her. I felt very comfortable with her acumen, and her entire being. My husband, a friend and I were all present and never felt rushed, or embarrassed. She even cried with us. She stayed for about 2 hours, and wrapped our beloved Winston in the most loving manner, in a beautiful blanket. I hope to have more animals in my life, and I unequivocally would want Dr. Au to take part in their peaceful goodbyes. Thank you, Dr. Au. I hope you read this, and know how much you are appreciated, and wha t an incredible human you are.

Dr. Chan was incredibly patient, gentle, and compassionate, treating my dog with such dignity and love. What truly set them apart was the entire team...every phone call and text I sent was met with kindness, calm, and genuine care. They made me feel supported and held through an experience that felt unbearable. I had reached out to several places, and I am beyond grateful that I chose Peaceful Paws. I don't typically write reviews, but their level of compassion and going above and beyond during this time meant so much to me. I will never forget it.

Dr…read more Chan is endlessly compassionate, taking all the time required in order for me and my dog (dogs) to feel safe. I know I am in good, reliable, competent hands with Dr. Chan. At this most stressful time of end of life care/euthanasia-the need for empathy and understanding for both dog and human, is of utmost importance, Dr. Chan provides this in abundance. The follow up (return of ashes, etc.) is also handled with profound love and sensitivity. At this most fragile time both for human and dog, I cannot stress enough, Dr. Chan's tender handling of all the details.

I have no words to express my gratitude. From the moment I made that difficult call and spoke with…read moresweet Sherry (sp?) who was so very helpful, then my comforting talk with Dr. Shea, who was so wonderful and understanding, and above all completely honest with my Stella's overall condition, I couldn't have made this choice without her, I was completely lost and inconsolable. Dr. Shea was my guide in my time of need. When the final day came, Dr. Erica came to our home. She is this beautiful angel, with the most kind and gentle voice. She helped us walk our precious Stella over the Rainbow bridge in the beauty of silence, reverence, and peace, it was so beautiful. Dr. Erica sent us the most amazing sympathy card a few days later that touched my heart deeply. Honor Pet has not only been there throughout this difficult journey, but their kindness, compassion, professionalism and guidance have meant more to me and my family than they can ever know. Today, Stella is back home at her final resting place, where she belongs...they sent her home to us in this incredible Honor box which carried her remains, a mini glass bottle of her fur, a candle to burn if/when I need to feel her presence, a digital print of her beautiful little "chocolate chip nose" we all loved and adored, a package of Forget-Me-Not seeds to plant in her honor, and a letter conveying their deepest sympathy for our great loss. It was all so overwhelming and thoughtful. If anyone is faced with such a difficult decision as this, and you are like me, confused and doubting whether you're making the right end-of-life choice, I cannot recommend Honor Pet enough. I promise, you will be blessed and given the truth and confidence as to when that right time comes. Stella never suffered, because Dr. Shea went over her symptoms/behavior, but when she started showing signs that she was ready, I recognized them and knew. My Stella no longer is suffering... The devastation over losing a beloved pet cannot be fully described in words, other than this: "Grief is the Price we Pay to Love." I love you my sweet girl, wait for me.

But that was not the fault of the provider, just the fault of what I was having to do. The vet was very nice and very patient. She even gave me a late night appointment so I could spend some quality time with my Dog. Writing this review brings up my pain again, but they did such a good job that I want other people to know about them. They were, expensive, but that was partially because it was a late night visit.

I went on Yelp and called several vets. The veterinarian with Gemcore is the only one who answered…read more I'm so sorry I can't even remember her name because everything happened so quickly and it's all such a blur, but she answered my call at almost 10:00 p.m. while she was driving, when no one else answered. The last thing you want when your fur baby is suffering is to reach voicemail after voicemail. Hearing a compassionate human voice on the other end of the phone brought me so much comfort. She came to my home first thing the next morning. I was worried about my younger Golden Retriever jumping on her or interfering with her care, but she was absolutely wonderful with both of my dogs. She encouraged him to stay in the room with us once he was comfortable with her, and I truly believe that helped him understand what was happening. She was incredibly professional, but I'll never forget one small moment. Out of the corner of my eye, while I was saying my final words and paying my last tributes to my girl, I saw her quietly wiping tears from her eyes. As a healthcare provider myself, I know how often we're expected to wear a mask and stay composed. Seeing that genuine emotion didn't make her seem less professional, it reassured me that she truly cared. In those final moments, your mind races. You question whether you're making the right decision. Seeing her emotion gave me peace because I knew she wasn't simply going through the motions. I knew that if she believed my girl wasn't ready, she would have told me. Most of us are fortunate enough to experience this kind of heartbreak only a few times in our lives. She carries families through it over and over again. That takes an incredible amount of compassion. Thank you for your kindness, your empathy, and for helping my sweet Lilo leave this world peacefully and with dignity. Please take care of yourself, too. The first photo is the day Oliver met Lilo as a puppy, their first photo together. The second was taken just before the veterinarian arrived to help Lilo pass. I didn't realize until later that I had unknowingly captured both the beginning and the end of their story together I will miss my Lilo for eternity.

Dr. Leah was professional, compassionate, gentle and kind. As a vet, she briefly discussed Roxy's condition with us and this helped me with all of the conflict that I felt regarding ending her health struggles and pain. Dr. Leah was sweet with her and made all of us feel comfortable. She suggested giving her treats as the procedure began and Roxy was so happy eating cheese that she did not feel the needle as I held her. Afterwards Dr. Leah gave us her time and did not rush us, which I appreciated. I had hoped to give our sweet girl the luxury of peace and love at the end, but I really did not expect her to go happily as she ate special treats. I am so truly grateful for that.

I hope that you are reading reviews of IVS Mobile Vets for any reason other than why I sought their services. But if that time has come, when your beloved pet can no longer continue pain-free and without complications, you are told you have options. Someone told me to "drop him off at a shelter" and "start the grieving process". Others said to take him to a vet and have him euthanized at the clinic. Cost being a factor, I was mortified at the prospect of having to consider either of the above options. Abandoning a family member to die alone and wonder why? Who can do that? I came very close to having to consider that option; that is until I found IVS Mobile Vets. Encouraged by glowing reviews, I called to inquire about end-of-life care services and pricing. Dr. Moore answered my call, and even before we could get to details, she solemnly and compassionately listened to me go on and on about my little Donnie, and validated my immense grief over what was to come. Moreover, despite prices for everything everywhere being at an all-time high, Dr. Moore quoted me at-home euthanasia and private cremation for almost $200 LESS than the next lowest quote that I obtained... and I had called over a dozen vets and organizations. Donnie went to sleep on February 15, at about 1pm. In the comfort and safety of his own home, while lying in the bed that we shared for over 13 years, he drifted peacefully, and I held him until his frail little body started to cool, I don't know if it was a 1/2 hour or 1/2 a day, but Dr. Moore left us alone and gave me the time I needed for closure. Dr. Moore was gentle, patient, and truly compassionate. Despite it being the most heartbreaking day of my life, the occasion was peaceful and life-affirming, and I will mourn and cherish that memory for the rest of whatever's left of my own life. Every corner of my home is a mine field of Donnie memories, and I can't envision a day when I could come home and not long to see his little face in the upstairs window, waiting for me to open the door. But, I am forever comforted to know that I did right by my little guy, loving and caressing him to the very end. Donnie's ashes were delivered to me in person about a week later, with a heartfelt card, dignified packaging, and supplemental literature on grieving. Thank you, Dr. Moore, for your kindness, compassion and integrity. Truly an angel of mercy.
